International Conference on Advanced Visual and Signal-Based Systems, sponsored
by the IEEE Signal Processing Society (SPS). AVSS is a premier international
forum in image and video processing and signal-based analytics that brings
together experts from academia, industry, and government to advance the
frontiers of theories, methods, systems, and applications. In addition, AVSS
2025 also explores the robustness, security, privacy, and fairness issues in
applying AI and machine learning algorithms for image and video analytics. AVSS
2025 will feature a main conference and multiple associated workshops,
challenge contests, and tutorials. Topics of interest include, but are not
limited to:<br>
